In the latest Manchester derby, Manchester City convincingly defeated Manchester United, highlighting the stark contrast between the two teams. Despite Marcus Rashford’s spectacular goal for United, City’s dominance was evident with 74% possession and 27 shots compared to United’s three. City, facing a familiar situation of conceding the first goal, mounted a comeback led by Phil Foden, who scored two crucial goals. Foden’s second goal sparked controversy as United argued for a free-kick, resulting in their manager’s booking. City’s triumph narrows the gap to one point behind leaders Liverpool, setting the stage for a crucial match at Anfield. On the other hand, United’s top-four aspirations appear distant, trailing by 11 points and facing significant struggles in the league.
